Restocked, edition is limited to 750 copies. Tim Hecker needs much less of an introduction today than he did when he released his debut recording
Haunt Me nearly ten years ago; he now easily holds his own with top tier electronic artists from around the world. Despite its age the album remains interesting and vital. While not nearly as complex as more recent outings such as
Harmony in Ultraviolet and
Imaginary Country, it gives a very clear view into the artist’s approach and style.
Haunt Me is a beautifully arranged record that sees nine compositions spread out over twenty tracks that have been woven together to form one long extended piece of music. This method has become standard on the recordings by Hecker that followed
Haunt Me and is an excellent method to deeply immerse the listener into the work. At the time of
Haunt Me’s release,
Pitchfork championed Tim Hecker as one of North America’s best kept secrets, scoring
Haunt Me an impressive 8.6 on 10, and they have continued to support the artist’s endeavors ever since.
